Hey guys, I'm planning to get a new case and was wondering which one of these you thought I should get. I want it to play around with some mods including stealth bays and a custom side window.
![]() http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...98497&CatId=32 I like the fact that the PSU is on the bottom and that this case has lots of room and lots of ways to do cable management. - or - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811112099 This one I love for the looks, simple, not-rounded edges, no lights (that way I can choose whatever color I want for cathodes and whatnot). And I also like the fact that it's made of aluminum. What do you guys think? Thanks for the input

My money would go towards the CM, personally.

Lian-Li all the way, you just can't compare to their build quality.

Cooler Master is cheaper and basically not much difference except a little bit harder to mod. But I normally don't mod cases that I have to pay for. to get completely built in already. I just buy iron/wood.
